This week: EYB helpful hints, a virtual Christmas party, recipes and more

This week we are sharing a few helpful hints. A Member recently emailed that they had enjoyed reading a particular Member’s Notes and wanted to know if it was possible to read other notes by that Member. The answer is yes.

If you are reading a Note on a book, click on the Member name and the profile of that Member will come up. You can look at their Bookshelf and by clicking on Notes – you will find all the Notes written by that particular member. Any time you come across a Member’s name in the Forum or elsewhere on the site – the same holds true.

If you come across a typo or issue with a book and/or recipe, please email info@eatyourbooks.com to report this instead of writing a Note. We try, but we cannot possibly read every Note, so in order that we might correct a problem as quickly as possible, please email us with the particulars. This also holds true if you come across errata sheets with corrections for a title/recipe. In the case of a broken online link, please use our Report Broken Link feature instead of emailing.

Procrastibaking Podcast has invited our Members to join them on December 11th at 3:00 EST for a Christmas Party. They have invited me to speak about EYB and also discuss a few of my favorite Christmas cookbooks. You may register to attend here. The event will be via Zoom and a link will be sent to join the day before.

For those in the Denver area, Sylvie Bigar will be discussing her book Cassoulet Confessions at the Tattered Cover Book Store store on Colfax on November 30th at 6 pm. See below for a link to our promotion on this title.
